LONDON EXPAT AMERICAN MEETUP GROUP INAUGURAL PARTY

This is going to be the biggest inauguration event in London on Jan 20th! Our last election night party attracted over 4,000 people for one overnight party so we are prepared for at least that amount. And good news; The admission will be no more than a fiver! £5.00. Details very soon!

LONDON
(AP) – Stuck in Britain on Inauguration Day? Madame Tussauds, the
London waxwork museum, is offering U.S. tourists the chance to see
their new president up close for free.

The museum says Americans
need to bring proof of citizenship. The offer is intended to celebrate
the inauguration of the museum's new attraction — a Barack Obama
waxwork — on Jan. 20.

Sculptors are still adding the finishing
touches, but the museum said Wednesday that Obama would be shown in an
informal and relaxed pose, smiling with arms folded amid a reproduction
of the White House Oval Office.

Museum spokeswoman Liz Edwards
declined to say how many people she thought would show up for the free
viewing. The museum typically charges 25 pounds ($38) at the door.
